Walking down the street the other day I came uuon a window tilled with trailer hitches. Those gimmicks that tit on the back end ol a car to that you can pull a trailer behind you. After looking at them I was will ing to admit that 1 knew nothing about trailer hitches. Trailer hitches fail to fill a niche In my life. Trailer hitches were not a part of the liberal arts education which was plastered in a thin patina over the frame those manv years ago. Trailer hitches. In short, draw a blank. But If someone started telling me a storv that Involved trailer hitches, illustrating it graphically with Ills hands ana saying . . . "you know?" I'll bet I'd nod and agree that, yep, I knew. And I suppose there are count less things in this life that fall into that category. We are all a little pront to agree that we know all about a subject when actually we can't even spell the word. And eventually fee all wind ud in the same spot as the man who insisted for years he liked truffles until be tried to eat one. Maybe the world would be better place to live If there were a lot more integral honestv involved in the minor situations of life. I m sure there would be considerably less misunderstanding about such things as racial prejudice, class distinction, the division between la bor and white collar workers and the triviata of modern living. If we would all go for lust one week pledged to admit that we didn't know about something if we didn't we'd sound prettv stunid to both ourselves and other people. But. on the other hand, we'd know a hell of a lot more at the end of the week; than we did on Mon day. " The nrize remark of the week undoubtedly goes to Sally Barn- CAUGHT In By 08 Just to keep the record straight, the conundrum that was concocted by young Phillip Cartwright was incompletely reported here. The thing you're after not only has two legs and lies on the bot tom of the lake but also, it can't breathe. ' Now when you try It on some body you can give them an ad ditional clue. (Answer: A VERY dead duck.) And that brings us back again to the Inspection tour for the Junior Livestock Show. (It seems to take longer to tell about it than it did to do it. And be assured that the doing was much more enjoyable than the telling or the reading thereof.) Our last stop, sometime after ' 6:00 city time, was at the Charlie Read place on the Crystal Springs Road. The family met us in the cool, green yard, and as the little gal started to lead the way to the barn Mrs. Read said, dont you wish you had "something with two legs" for dinner? Sure enough, seeing and smelling Is believing. As one inspection went on at the barn, another inspection took place in the kitchen. The aroma was unmistakable. Those long browned breasts couldn't have been chicken. They did look like the domestic variety though, so no questions were asked. An apple picked ut from the lawn temporarily staved off the pangs set up by the experience, and we ruminated on the advan 0A. . (p.

It' may even last when the skinniness is all gone. Some grownups, too, are overly thin one lady writes that she is 33 years oia, nas tnree cnuoren, is five feet, five Inches tall and weighs 96 pounds. She says she nas tried in vam to gain weight. While it is better to be too thin than too fat, it Is also not desir able to weigh too much under nor mal lor age and height. Most peo ple, however, can gain weight If they want to and know how to go aooui it. Food is something like coal: the food Is the fuel for the human body. Unlike coal, however, If more is taken in than is burned up, it will be transformed and stored as fat. The answer to the question of gaining weight, therefore, is to take more food in than is used by the burning-up activities of the body In the form of exercise and other bodily functions. Thus, there are two ways to add poundage. One Is to increase the amount of fuel, or food, taken In end the other Is to cut down on the rate of burning it up. The first is the more practical. Foods can be chosen which have a comparatively high calorie or fuel content. Fats or carbohydrates sup- HOTELS OSBURN HOLLAND IUGENE, ORE MEDFORD Thoroughly Modern Mr. and Mrs. J. E.

Mavbe I belter have mv ears tested. I ran t spell either. Most recent news from the AEC is that Pike County, Ohio, has been blessed with a new Uianium-ilii plant. About a billion, two hundred million dollars worth of It. I pre sume the two hundred million is for doorknobs.) A couple of days after we hear about the new- plant being built in the beautilul valley of the Ohio tthe last time I was there it was raining bloody murder i we come across a news story that says that under no conditions will the United States use the atom or hydrogen bomb in settling the Korean war. So it would seem that the Ameri can taxpayer, that bowed and pa tient man. is being blessed with another pig in a poke. According to all the best known engineers from the private firms the day ol the jet Dowered car Is about as far in the future as a good nickel beer. And as for atom powered ships. the navy (government, again! has the in there. Not that It matters. Taxpayers as a class have been so buffeted about in the past couple of decades that they no longer feel the blows as they fall. But one question occasionally oc curs to us. If we aren't gonna use the bombs why- are we spending billions to build 'em? Or is that It's really not rummage sale going on around here.

As a finale to this report of the Day In tha Country, we'll have to remark that: Such a Jaunt should be a must for every city slicker. We're all the same: certain things that have to be done: can't spare the time: nobody asked me. Well, let things go to pot (you may be surprised that they don't) find some ex cuse, and get out off the highways onto the byways. Nomination for the prettiest 4-H Clubber visited on the Tuesday tour goes to Shirley Chaney. Nomination for the most viva cious goes to the Rodriguez young sters all ot them. Nomination for the most full of business goes to Dale and Henry Williams. Questions on prices, shrinkage, timing, what to enter, boiled and bubbled on that visit. Nomination for the most profes sional showman goes to Betty Brandelsky who has proved it by taking some top ribbon year after year. Nomination for the proudest grandad goes to Joe Wright. tWe don't blame him.) And of course Nomination for the most start ling reception goes to Stanley Ken dall and his electric fence.

Besides choosing the foods for their weight and energy-producing qualities, it is comparatively sim ple Just to eat more. Th's can be done by eating a mouthful or two more at each meal than one is accustomed to, or by adding in between meals. Foods of high calorie content in clude the sweets, potatoes, bread and butter, cereals, butter or mar garine, cream and the like. Whole milk is also helpful. When a person Is trying to eat more fat producing foods, the oth er necessary elements in the diet should not be left out. The diet snould also be "balanced" some fruits, meat, vegetables, eggs, fish and other substances which are not. high in fat-producing calories inouid be continued to maintain good health. A small mid-morning meal, an aitemoon or bed-time snack of weigni-gaining foods, are all of great help. A glass of half milk and half cream is a good example of what could be taken. It cannot be emphasized too of ten that a balanced diet mut he kept up. Almost anyone who does not have some serious disease can gain weight by following the plan of decreasing, or at least not in creasing, activity and increasing the amount of food eaten.

South Airi ca soon will begin producing for the American program under an agreement first reached in 1950. Additional supplies are in prospect from Canada's great Eldorado mine near the Arctic Circle. And the Belgian Congo, long one of the world's richest sources, continues as a supplier for the United States' ever-expanding atomic program. Meanwhile, the domestic pro gram for tapping uranium sources on Uncle Sam's home grounds, most of it In the western states, has been greatly accelerated now going "on all 12 cylinders," in the words of an Atomic Energy Com. mission (AEC) man. Production from established do mestic sources in Increasing, new production areas are being opened up and exploration is being pushed to lind brand-new prospects. Here are some details on the uranium program both at home and abroad: DOMESTIC: Heart of Uncle Sam's domestic uranium production and explora tion program is the Colorado Pla teau, the great, ham-shaped, 50,- uuu-square mile area roughlv cov ering western Colorado, eastern man, the northeast corner of New Mexico and the northwest section of Arizona, The U.

"I got to the plane and found the pilot dead." Watson said. "The plane was really a wreck. The body was astride a bomb dlre:tly under the cockpit, like a man would be astride a horse. I tried to pull him out but found he couldn't be removed without cutting torch es. "Then I began looking around with a flashlight at all those bombs ... I realized right away that was no place for me to be . . . I got out of there." The plane carried about a dozen 250 pound bombs and two 1.000 pounders. Some have not been found and three villages have been evacuated until all danger of ex plosions had passed. Watson said. Some of the delayed action bombs dropped over North Korea do not explode for davs. USDA Schedules Stock Hearing Washington in The Agri- culture Department Friday renort- ed that it will hold a hearing In Portland next month on livestock marketing practices.

Not all haymakers, however, are tolling humans in hot valleys. In the highest mountains are four- footed little haymakers, the coneys or plkas. The coney's home Is In the talus chips from Jack Frost's chisel. These accumulate at the foot of al pine cliffs. Here the coney gains safe shelter, when the shadow of an eagle's wing wirelesses to him that overhead an enemy has marked him for a feast. During centuries of evolution the coney acquired the habit of mak ing hay just as much as do those who make human haystacks. This he cures and piles into little hay ricks In talus crevices. There It will be safe and sweet through the coming winter though under many feet of snow. The talus Interstices thus become pantries where his food Is kept until sum mer coming, the snow blanket People DO TOO read small space ads - you are!

Drama And Art Combined ASHLAND Art work of a very unusual kind Is being combined with drama and music nt the Oregon Shakespearean Festival this season. An exhibit of nationally-known paintings ol Shakespearean scenes by Virginia Illalr, Monterey, artist, went on display In the festival amnhlthcalrc last week and will remain on exhibition through Aug. 30. when the Icstlvnl season ends. The nalnlinus are mossnlcs with painted ccrumlc tiles forming the basic units. Miss Bluir, who studied at Chi cago Art Institute, became inter ested In ceramics through her sis ter, Barbara Blair, well-known Cal ifornia pottler. She was also In terested in Hhakesncare and the theater and the unique work Is the result.
